Samantha has always HATED being on her tummy. When we first started Tummy Time, she would only tolerate it for a few seconds before crying and screaming. And we don't believe in letting her cry through it, so we pick her up and try again the next day. Now, at 3 and a half months, she still doesn't like Tummy Time, but we keep trying! Lack of Tummy Time hasn't affected her ability to hold her head up...she's really good at that. But I think it has affected her ability to roll over. She's not on her tummy for long enough to discover how to roll over on to her back, and when she's on her back, she has no desire to roll over on to her tummy. She does roll over on to her side, though.

She takes after her aunt in this respect. I hate tummy time, too. It hurts my bad back.
ReplyDeleteShe's getting better with tummy time, soon she'll be crawling all over the place. I can't wait.
